Bella Vista sits in Longwood, a Seminole County community known for large lots, mature trees and quick access to the region's job centers. Homes here run big — the median is nearly 3,850 square feet — and the neighborhood keeps company with well-regarded Longwood homes for sale like Sweetwater Oaks, Alaqua Lakes and The Springs. Downtown Orlando is about 20 minutes away, with Orlando International Airport roughly 39 minutes out, so you get suburban room without cutting yourself off from the city.
This is a small, slow-turning market. With only two active listings and three sales in the past year, inventory is genuinely scarce — but sellers who priced right got 99% of asking on average. Expect to pay in the high six figures to low seven figures for a home this size, and plan for a deliberate search rather than a bidding war.
Bella Vista is a community in Longwood, Florida.

Bella Vista FAQs
Is Bella Vista a good place to live?+
It's a strong fit if you want space, mature surroundings and a manageable commute — downtown Orlando is about 20 minutes away and the airport roughly 39. Homes feed into Lake Brantley High, Teague Middle and Wekiva Elementary, and the area sits among established Longwood communities like Sweetwater Oaks. The trade-off is limited inventory, so patience helps.
Is Bella Vista expensive?+
Yes, relative to much of Longwood — the median list price is about $964,950, with current asking prices ranging from $769,900 to $1,160,000. Over the past year the median sold price was $820,000, so buyers are landing homes somewhat below peak list prices. It's a high-end, large-home market rather than an entry-level one.
What do homes cost in Bella Vista?+
Active listings run from $769,900 to $1,160,000 with a median of $964,950, averaging about $262 per square foot. With a median home size near 3,847 square feet, you're paying for genuine square footage. One of the two current listings is priced above $1 million.
How is the market in Bella Vista?+
It's small and slow-moving: just two homes are active and only three sold in the past 12 months. Listings take a median of 72 days to sell, but well-priced sellers averaged 99% of asking — a sign buyers aren't overpaying and sellers aren't slashing prices. Compared to busier Longwood homes for sale, expect fewer choices and a steadier pace.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA runs about $141 per month, which is modest for a community of this caliber. Property taxes come in around $7,145 per year, in line with the neighborhood's higher home values. Budget for both when comparing against nearby options like Alaqua Lakes.
